SAN DIEGO — Volunteers preparing for the Youth Philanthropy Council's Saint Nick's Kicks Shoe Drive on Saturday morning got an early start. The group started setting up for the day at 5 a.m. by setting up canopies, opening boxes and stacking shoes.When the giveaway started at 8 a.m., lines of cars crowded the parking lot at the Sharp Spectrum Center. Families received a minimum of $250 worth of shoes, along with toys, coloring books and other items.
'To see our children be able to be blessed with things from the community, or from whoever they come from, it shows that there’s still hope for humanity.'This shoe drive is set to give away more than 21,000 shoes. That number would break the Guinness World Record for the most shoes donated in 24 hours. The most inspiring thing about the giveaway is that a majority of the volunteers are high school and college students.
